My Students

This is my second year of teaching fourth grade to a wonderful and creative group of boys and girls in a Title I school. We are excited to be looping from 4th grade to 5th next year! They are excited to learn and come to school each day. It is important to ensure that children enjoy learning. Throughout the learning experience of each student, it is important that they continue the motivation to grow in their learning. They will take their joy of learning into the next grade and beyond. Therefore, they need all the necessary materials to make them successful, independent, and confident learners. With your help, this can continue.

My Project

My students love to utilize the classroom and sit just about anywhere. The different special chairs and a new rug will help my students by giving them comfortable places to sit while working on their assignments.

My students are extremely responsible and love to treat the items within the classroom with the respect they deserve.

I know that my students will love to have new places to sit that are comfortable and new!

Building a classroom that is like a second home is my goal as a teacher and making sure my students feel comfortable while they learn so that their affective filter can be lowered and they can learn to the best of their ability.
